This sudden change left everyone in shock. They stared after Fade's retreating figure in a daze.
"What's going on? Why did Fade suddenly leave?"
"He obviously had the upper hand just now!"
"Could it be that there's some urgent matter that left him with no choice but to leave?"
Halston, whose eyes were red with fury, paused as well. He then got ready to chase after Fade.
However, at this moment, Walmor shouted at him and stopped his pursuit. "Halston, stop! Come back!"
"Master Sun, I..." Halston looked determined, and his eyes were full of reluctance.
However, Walmor's expression was grim and he said in a low voice, "Go back and calm down."
Although Halston was unwilling to give up, he did not dare to disobey Walmor's command. He could only swallow his anger and retreat.
Then, Walmor looked at all the guests and stated, "I'm sorry to let all the honored guests see such a farce."
While speaking, he bowed to everyone to show his apology.
Then, he sighed softly and remarked casually, "Fade had managed to escape quickly. Otherwise, when Halston got serious, he would've..."
He then fell silent deliberately.
The guests' eyes lit up instantly, and they started to talk amongst themselves.
"It turns out that Halston hasn't taken any serious action. I was wondering why Fade had gained the upper hand just now."
"No wonder Fade wanted to escape. Halston was going to make a big move."
"Tianwu Clan deserves to be called Tianwu Clan. Fade has the title of Master Chen. When he encounters a real master, he can only run away."
"Huh, the title of a master bragged by a rogue cultivator. How can he be compared with a real Heaven Level disciple?"
"Fade was really good at talking nonsense just now. It turns out he was just spitting nonsense!"
In an instant, everyone's opinion changed with Walmor's words.
It turned into ridicule for Fade's escape and a hot round of praise and discussion of Tianwu Clan.
After all, most of the guests didn't know much about martial arts, so they naturally couldn't see the essence of the martial arts duel between Fade and Halston. They could only listen to a master like Wai mor.
As for a few guests who had a good knowledge of martial arts and noticed some abnormalities, they naturally would not say anything at this moment. After all, Walmor had spoken out. No one would be against or refuting his words. They would just be digging their own graves.
After making sure of the situation, Walmor turned around and left.
When he found Halston, who was still fuming with anger, he asked, "Have you not calmed down?"
When Halston saw Walmor enter, he quickly stood up and saluted. "Master Sun, you're here. I- I didn't..."
"Although our Heaven Level clan is formidable, that doesn't mean that we're the only ones who are powerful. There are far many more experts in this world than you think. Don't be too confident. You're going to suffer if you think like this."
"Fade is just the beginning. Not only in this country but also abroad. When you go to participate in the International Youth Warrior Competition, you will see that the real world is much wider than you think."
After listening to Walmor's words, Halston fell silent for a while. Then, he bowed to Walmor and said, "Master Sun, thank you for your guidance."
"It's a good thing that you would listen to me," Walmor replied.
Halston nodded and immediately asked, "Master Sun, this time, Fade has left. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for us to find such an opportunity next time. Laverick and Kaegen, do we..."
Walmor narrowed his eyes and answered, "Of course I won't forget about Laverick and Kaegan. Moreover, not everyone can challenge Tianwu Clan. We must regain some respect."
"Master, do you have any other plans?" When Halston saw his confident expression, he couldn't help but think of something and ask.
Walmor smiled gently and responded, "There are some things that you will know soon."
"Now, you can calm down and go to see Kaegan. Have a good chat with him. He's in a bad mood."
"Yes!" Halston nodded. He immediately thought of something and asked, "Master Sun, it's not too long until the start of the competition. If Kaegen's leg is broken, will it affect his participation in the competition? By then..."
Walmor snorted, narrowed his eyes, and said, "That's not true. Fade knows well. When he attacked Kaegan, he knew when to stop. After treatment, Kaegan's leg injury should be healed in a month."
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved," Halston replied with a nod.
